New Yonic , Sept. 5. Following ara the
editorial comments upon. President Harri
son's letter at acceptance :
Tribune : President Harrison has Usaed a.
message to th * American pcoplo. Iu dlgnity-
and elevation of tone , in orcadta ot states
manship. In deliberation and care of state
ment , , it is worthy of a place with tha ablest
state paper * ot the nation's history. His
latter of acceptance. In form addressed to the
committee from tha national convention , is
in subhtanca a powerful review of tha work
which has been dona far the country by tna
administration and by conuresa sinca power
was intrusted to tna republican party four
years oca. It directly appeals to tuo people
to decide whether this work merits a vow of
want of confidence. Tho. appeal is not per
sonal.
Worldt President Harrison's letter of ac
ceptance Is simply a strmp soencb in the
form of on epistle. It la less a document ta
elucidate his views oc to explain bis party's
purposes than an attempt to cam votes ay
accommodating the c views and purposes to
hostile public opinion.
Herald : Perhaps the most sinking and
significant asp ct ot taa letter is Its anpeoi to
farmers. Much spacn is dnvoted to sbowing
the grt at benefits conferred upon thorn by
reciprocity , by the McIDnloy law , by tha
Asncultural department , etc. , all oC which
looks as if tba president is rather anxious
about the effect of the alliance movement in
the northwest.
Times : Wnat Mr Hamson has to say in
his letter of acceptance regarding silver
seems to us to ba reasonably conclusive as to
his Intention to veto any free colnaze bill
that might bo presented to him wore ha re-
elected. It is certain that no such bill would ,
or could , comply with tha conditions that he
lays down as imperative.

Aoctn-Tji , Sit ? . , Sept. 6. The following
letter from Hon. James G. Blaina to Chair
man Manley of the repu Oilcan state comuiit-
tca was muda public tonixbt :
BAS ELinnon. ile. , Sept. 3 , ISBi HOD.
Jo&oph H. Maraey , Auplsta , Me. ily Deur
Sir : Not beintf able , for reasons which t
have explained to you , to deliver public
speeches ia this present camnoiga , I take
the liberty of submitting my views on the
Issues which I record as being strongest for
the reoublicaua to urge before tha peaole.
First. Tha issue of greatest consequence
is the tariff on. Imparts , and it will continua
to bo until a settlumeat is effected by a ma
jority so lar-ro that it will oo tan&niount to
general acquiescence. Tha republicans are
aggressive on tins subjecc. Two years ago
they passed a general enactment kaowa as
tao McKinlay UriZ , which for a time failed
to moot with popular approval and was re
garded with a certain decree of distrust by
those 'vho had always upheld the protective
svatcii. But a powerful reaction has coma in
consequence of thu vindication of the McHan-
lev ta.'iff . by experience. It is found to have
woriced admirably , and within the last year
has produced a ureater volume of business ,
internal and external , export and import ,
taaa the Cnited States ever transacted be
fore. Notwithstanding thu character and
extent of the opnosiuon to it. urnculture is
remunerative , manufactures are prosperous
and commerce is mora fiaurisaing than at
any previous time thus vindicating the McKinley -
Kinley tariff ay an impressive and undeniu-
ble series of facts.
Democratic Position.
t this tanff tha democratic party
hm taiccn a position almost without a paral
lel in the history of the country Thay reject
entirely the doctrine of protection , pronounce
it a fraud and anathema generally , A reso
lution to tais effect -.vag aaoptad or the demo
cratic convention mm the committco on
resolutions by a two-thirds vote , thus mani
festing the inteUlirent participation of nearly
every man in the convention. Sometimes a
resolution may be adopted in haste , or Just
when the convention is adjourning-
muv Jail to receive the attention of
tha members , but this resolution was
debated pro and con aud passed after a con
test and was perfectly understood by the
member ; of tao convention. IL contained
these words : 'We denounce the republican
protection as a fraud upon the labor of the
sreat majority oCthe American otsocle fnrhe
benefit of a few.Ve declare- a funda
mental princinlu of the democratic party
that tha federal government his no consti
tutional power to impose and collect tariff
duos except for the p'uroose of revenue only.
\Ve demand that the collection of such tnsea
bo limited to the necessities of the govern
ment when nonestly and economically ad
ministered. '
Ouutes Uie rounder oC Democncy.
If anvone will ta'cu the trouble to read the
resolutions by whiuh Mr. Calhoun sought to
defend , his nullification scheme in IS33 , , bo
will fiud tne tanff slutforai of the demo
cratic. party in general harmony tncrewith ,
and if he examines the subject further bu
will discover that : the duties in the compro
mise tariff whica reconciled Mr. Calaoun
and appeiised his angry followers la soma
Carolina took a mora comprehensive char
acter than tnose contemplated in
the democratic resolution of 1SU ±
Thu democrats are in tha baait
oCanailng Jefferson as the founder of their
party , and yet on tba subject of tariff , they
art : in radical opposition to the principles
laid down py Jefferson. Toward , tne close
of bis admi.-'isrrntion the revenue from the
tariff un imports produced a c = nsiderabla
surplus and tna question was , what should
bo dona ) Should 'ha tariff bo reduced , or
saoulo this surplus ba maintained' Jefferson
pointedly asked : "Shall wa suppress tha
import * and. give that , advantage to forsiim
over domestic manufactures ! " For himself ,
He recommended that "tha imparts tie main-
tamed" and that the suralus crsnted "snould
be appropriate-l to tne improvemcntof roads ,
canal * , rivers and education. "
If the constitution did not rive sufficient
power to warrant these appropriations , Jef
ferson went so far as to recommend that it
tie amended. This presents taa strongest
condition of affairs upon which a protective
tinff can be justified , and Jefferson did not
hesitate to recommend it. The democrats
of the present d.ty , it is needless to say. are
the direct opponents of tha policy which
Jofferion thus ouUme-1 ana adhered to.
Iteciprncity nil What it Max Dour.
Second.Vaen the princiole oCrectproca' '
trade was first proposed to bo introduced
mta tba tanff system , the democrats showed
a mot , cendroiis appreciation of the question
and gave it their support aa Ion ? as repub
licans refused to acropt it , but when tha
republicans came to atiorava it tha demo
cratic support vanished and. Instead of
fuvonng. we fiud tna democratic national
convention posainga resolution hostile to tha
syste > n. But in spita of democrat c opposi
tion wa havu attained through reciprocity
a new and valuable trade , and the system
has demonstrated its many advantages.
Wa wara about to declare hilgur , molasses.

for articles which wa bad intended to
gratuitously admit. Tha free hut uf tha Mc-
Kialey tariff u larger in the numoer of arti

would hava beau , thaesult to the- United
btates if every article , bufora it waa put on
tha frse list , bad been made taa subject of
inquiry to see wbnt we could * zet in ex
change for a ! We omitted to do so for
many years and that neglect has cost tna
government advantages in trade whlco
would aava amounted to trnd of millions
of dollars.
This is tha whole of the reciprocity
scheme. It is very plain and very simple.
It secures a valuable trade iu exchange fur
articles otherwise destined to oe put on tha
Irea list. Tha democratic oarty tnink Uioy
can discredit it and they make tha effort ,
apparently , for tha unpatriotic reason that
they did not originate it.
Xutloii.il T . atata Itank Currency.
Third. With all Its calamities , the war
brought us ana great blessing a national
currency. Taera are many who will lay
that it was worth tha cant of the war to
bring about so auspicious a reuult to camiil
and labor. Prior to tnu war we
bad the worst currency vstem of any
enlightened nution in the world. Tha
uui bunus , with soma excepiinn * , were
taorougnly irnntponsiola. U'nt-neror one of
ttidin fallua tie riisutt was a Urze lass aud

tha Seeing soectaUirs , but quickly sur
rounded the batting ring aad taa judses'

a detachment of officers was then sent to tha

They bad for the no .t part taUen thu alarm

The officer then ran around to tba rear of

Tnat waa enough. Brown instantly

of taa limbs showed that an had known wnat

Without nlacinjr his revolver ia his Docket ,
Brown fled rapidly alonir Forueta street.
McDowell , hearing tha shot , had run out of
the gate , and seeing tae term or bis com

and the form of Brown going rapidly up the
street he at once started in nursuit. Ha was
a strong , athletic sellow , aad.be gained upon
Brown la a way that convinced tha fugitive
that 1C be continued in tbo open street it
meant his capture or a ( tent for his life. He
darted into a yard and around the side of an
unfinished nouse. McDowell was a few seconds

Brawn struggled desperately , but ho was In
the hands of a man wno was more than his

then endeavored to raise his revolver , but
tha strength of McDowell frustrated bis
efforts. He then uusbtMl the weapon against

ouly reach him Oy a rasa , out so accurate
were bis calculations in ihesa that ha seldom
fallen to hit the marit , which in tha opening
rounds was well bacic over tha kidneys and
on thu nock.
There was a raold succession of clinches ,
in w nlca Dixon always emersed unscathed.
The second was a decidedly Dlxon round , as
were the succeeding five.
Young SUellv showed that ho was nervous
from the start , and when ae realised that
the colored boy was coin ? to allnw him no
